"I didn't expect to go around and around, and I actually returned to Cleveland......"

Looking at Cleveland, which was not particularly prosperous in front of him, and even looked like a dilapidated countryside compared to Los Angeles, Wang Feng couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Accustomed to the prosperity of big cities, Wang Feng can understand why it is very difficult for small teams to introduce stars.

It's not just the difference in the daily life environment, but the exposure of this small city is also very low, unless it is a phenomenal top superstar like James, other players with slightly average strength, playing for a team like the Cavaliers, the popularity is far less than that of being a substitute in the Lakers.

Fame and money are directly linked, even if the strength is not enough to get a lucrative contract in the NBA, relying on some smaller advertising endorsements, ordinary players are enough to do without worrying about food and clothing.

In the next two years, Wang Feng needs to lead the team in Cleveland as the first core to at least reach the finals, so that he can complete the upgrade task of the system and achieve his ultimate goal.

2+1 contract, final year player option, average salary of 38 million.

This is Wang Feng's new contract.

The length of the contract is a bit low, and the Cavaliers theoretically only have two years of Wang Feng's right to use it, and whether they can use it for the third year depends on Wang Feng's mood.

In Wang Feng's plan, if the mission goal can be achieved within two years, then naturally he will not stay in the Cavaliers.

As a Chinese, he has no loyalty to the team in the United States, you give me money, and everyone takes what they need.

Under this premise, the value of big ball cities such as Los Angeles and New York is obviously a few floors higher than that of Cleveland.

Although Wang Feng has not yet figured out where his next home will be for the time being, I believe that no team in the whole league will not be interested at that time.

Two years later, in 2023, Wang Feng is just 31 years old, still at the peak of his career, and can maintain a strong competitiveness for at least about four years, which is completely worthy of all teams in the entire league to compete for.

Of course, it's too early to think about going home, and he hasn't even made an official report to the Cavaliers.

……

The Cleveland Cavaliers, on the other hand, paid full attention to Wang Feng's arrival.

Owner Gilbert is a man who understands and James' success has given him a clear idea of what a phenomenal top star can bring to the team.

This is also the reason why he is willing to give a lot of the team's future stud Wang Feng.

Even if he knew that Wang Feng would probably leave in two years.

What Gilbert is considering is the vast Chinese fan market behind Wang Feng.

When Wang Feng first joined the Cavaliers in 16 years, the sales of the Cavaliers' jerseys and peripheral products soared in China, bringing a considerable amount of income to the team.

In the 16-17 season, after Wang Feng played a statistical performance comparable to James in the finals, the Cavaliers were very eager to reach a contract extension with Wang Feng, and the priority was even higher than Irving.

It's a pity that Wang Feng has made up his mind, and neither the Cavaliers management nor James has been able to stay.

Then Wang Feng joined the Lakers for four years, completely took off, took both personal data and team honors, won three championships for the Lakers, and brought considerable commercial value to the team.

And within a year of Wang Feng's departure, Irving and James also left the team one after another, and the entire Cavaliers team was left with only one All-Star player, just think about how bad the situation is.

The Cavaliers have endured for several years, relying on multiple high-pick picks at the bottom of the league, and selecting Sexton, Garland and other players one after another, before finally seeing a little hope of rising, but everyone knows that this is only a faint hope.

Whether it is Sexton or Garland, they only have the potential to become All-Stars, but there is also a huge gap between All-Stars and top stars such as James, Wang Feng, Curry, and Durant.

No one knows the next LeBron. When will James return to Cleveland, and their small city will be able to keep this "LeBron . James: "How long?"

It is at this level of consideration that the Cavaliers paid the price of the future in exchange for Wang Feng, and did not receive much criticism from Cavaliers fans and sports media, but many people praised the deal, thinking that the Cavaliers made a lot of money.

At the same time, Wang Feng led the Chinese men's basketball team to defeat the United States Dream Team to win the gold medal in the men's basketball final of the Tokyo Olympics not long ago, which also made Cleveland fans even more excited.

The incompetent disdain of the Dream Team and the love for the almost invincible Wang Feng reached their climax almost at the same time.

"The current Wang Feng is much more powerful than LeBron! can actually defeat the Dream Team led by Durant's thick eyebrows by himself, in this way, even if the Cavaliers' current lineup is average, as long as there is Wang Feng, he should have strong strength, right? After all, no matter how weak they are, these are all players who can appear in the NBA, and they are always better than Wang Feng's teammates in the Chinese men's basketball team. ”

……

Taking the special car specially sent by the team to pick up the airport, Wang Feng shuttled through the streets and alleys of Cleveland.

Then he saw a huge poster of himself hanging from a huge billboard that hung quite prominently in the city streets.

"Wang Feng, welcome back!"

Wang Feng seriously doubted whether the driver had deliberately taken him around the route of these huge posters, because he had seen them several times along the way, and each time the posters had different shapes and words.

He knew that the Cavaliers were showing their welcome to Wang Feng's return in this way.

Teams in small-ball cities are sometimes so humble, unlike the Lakers, who have a lot of money and stars, and whether or not you can build a statue in front of the Staples Center depends on whether you are qualified to contribute to the team.

Not long ago, a curious person asked this question on the Lakers' official website.

Wang Feng, who brought the latest three-game dynasty to the Lakers, will the team erect a statue for him in the future.

The Lakers' official response was ambiguous.

"We are grateful to Wang Feng for his contribution to the team, and the accolades he has achieved are indeed enough to erect a statue, but it is too early to say this, Wang's career is not over, and it is not impossible to return to play in Los Angeles in the future."

As for whether the Lakers will erect a statue for themselves, Wang Feng is not interested.

This kind of thing is not a substantial honor, and as a Chinese, traditional cultural education makes him feel that it is always strange to be erected as a statue when he is still alive.
